Carlos was asked to weigh in on Fernando Alonso's comments about the back of the midfield and Alex: "I have enormous respect for Alex. He's a driver I love racing against and with whom I've never had any problems or lack of respect. I also enjoy battling with Fernando. Until this year, I'd never found myself in the bottom third of the grid. Throughout my life, between Toro Rosso, Renault, and McLaren, I've always fought for points and the top ten. For the first time, I find myself battling at the back of the midfield, and it's certainly not a pleasant situation. It's not so much a question of the quality of the drivers themselves, but rather the fact that you find yourself battling with drivers who truly have nothing to lose. The best result you can hope for is 20th place. This generates incidents or dynamics that you would never see at the front, simply because the stakes are infinitely higher at the front.” “In my opinion, none of us at the back of the grid deserves to occupy those positions. We all have the talent to fight for podiums, top five finishes, and wins. I'm thinking of Fernando, Alex, myself, and also drivers like Checo or Valtteri, who you've seen battle at the front without making the mistakes or suffering the accidents typical of the back rows. At the back of the grid, there's much more dirty air, heightened concertina effect, and situations where you find yourself three or four-wide in corners, dramatically increasing the likelihood of contact compared to the front of the race, where after Turn 1 everyone is in single file. None of us wants to be there, much less enjoy it. The frustration is common to all of us because we want to be at the top.” “As for Fernando's comments about the overall level of the drivers being low, I've been in F1 for 12 years, and this is, without a doubt, the year with the highest level of talent ever. I can't think of a single driver who isn't up to the level of Formula 1, and even the rookies who have arrived in recent years are excellent. We all make mistakes. I made them when I was young, and I still make them today, as you've seen this year, but I prefer to think that the high concentration of accidents at the back is purely circumstantial and not due to the quality of the grid. Perhaps in Fernando's case, there's also the personal frustration of thinking he doesn't deserve that position, but I can only speak for myself: it's extremely frustrating to think that two years ago I was winning here in Mexico, and this weekend I'll probably start 17th, despite being the same driver I was then, if not even better.”

Lewis Hamilton was asked about his thoughts on the gap between George Russell and Kimi Antonelli, and he answered in the most classy way, as always 👏🏽 "Um, Imean, I don't really know what the challenges have been from... I'm not in the team, so. Um, I do know he's had a lot, a lot of problems, a lot more or most of the problems have been on George's car this season. Um, and so I think it's been very, very challenging for him. Whereas Kimi's kind of had a much more simple, in respect to kind of issues with the car through the year. But, um, and then he's also delivered just when every single weekend. So, um, I think George had a really good pace, particularly at the beginning. Um, but it's like a couple steps forward and a couple, you know, a step back. So, I mean, I don't really know why the gap has is as big as it is. But, um, I'm sure he'll bounce back. Each weekend, he comes back and gets his best"

🚨 Kimi Antonelli is recovering from a viral illness and will miss Thursday's mandatory media duties at the Mexico City Grand Prix. The FIA has excused him as a precaution to allow him to rest. Mercedes expects him to return on Friday. #F1 #MexicoGP

People disagreeing but the idea that Nico hates the son that is just like him but loves the son thats like lewis is just

don’t call urself a kiwi fruit eater if u don’t eat the skin idc

I really enjoy seeing British drivers realizing they're actually not as good as their media hyped them up to be. Happened with Norris in 2024 and now with Russell. Beautiful
